A NEW use for the tobacco plant is
said to have been discovered. Its stems
and waste, it is claimed, are equal to
linen rags in the manufacture Of
paper. Tobacco waste costs less than
$40 ton, linen rags $40 to $50. There
is no expense in asserting the former,
and very little shrinkage, as against the
loss Of one-third Of rags. The yearly
tobacco waste is estimated by the cen,

Long Valley Notes.
December 80.

~cSShiCCi ~, lOCO.
EDITOR WORLD: As you don't
hear much from the Long Valleyites,
will ask room in your paper for few
short notes.
All the settlers here seem to enjoy
themselves as well as could be expect
ed under the circumstances. Our
population numbers only ffty-seven
all told; but if the present crop
don't winter kill we expect to see a
great many more here next winter.
We have had very mild winter
here SO far, with the exception of the
last ten days, which have been rath-
er wet. To-day is the first we have
seen the sun for ten DAYS, although
there is but little snow as vet. Most
y rain has fallen.
H. G. Moore cut severe hole in
his foot, and the chances are that if
the AK hadn't lodged in the sole of
his boot he would have cut quite a
hole in the ground. Said foot is do
ing very we'll now. The "ax.ident''
happened on the goth, while making
rails.
Cattle and stock of all kinds are do
ing very well. Twenty one head of
Henry Twins cattle have been
brought down from the upper end of
the valley, where he ranged large
oahd last summer. 1t is thought
there IS quite number vet up there.
If So they will certainly perish, as it
Is impossible to get them now. There
has been heavy fall of snow up in
that section of the valley.
Our Round Valley man 'sholds
forth IN great shape" and bids fair
10 make permanent resident of that
beautiful place. He reports not much
snow there yet.
If this gets through you may pos
sloly hear from us again next year.
May happy New Year be yours.

Ketrenchment and rxnen.es


Governor Stevenson, in his mes
sage to the Legislature, makes the
following suggestion under the above
caption:
Doubtless many of you have made
pledges to your constituents that YOU
would use all your Influence in 4 re-
duct'on OF expenses in the collection
ana expenditure of the public none, !,
both County and Territorial Ger.
taInly there is an urgent need for re-
trenchment in almost every depart
ment. There is no subject upon
which the people are more interested
than that of taxation, and it is de.
manded by them that the fees and
perquisites of many of the county Of
hcers should be reduced.
l believe express the convicten of
almost every intelligent citizen when
L say that the taxes of this Territory
can be assessed, collected and dis
bursed for half of the present expense.
The peoples money passes through
too many hands and each one claims
percentage.
"a law should be enacted making all
officers salaried and requiring them to
make quarterly returns to the Audit
ors OF all moneys received as fees or
from any other source.
1t is a we'll known fact that in some
counties in the Territory some of the
officers receive greater compensa-
ton for their services than the com.
blned salaries of the Governor, Sec
rotary and the three Judges of the
Supreme Court.
Your attention is particularly call
ed to an act passed at the 10Th Con.
gress: can act to prohibit the pass.
age of local or special laws in the
Territories of the United States to
limit Territorial Indebtedness and for
other purposes"
By this act you are compelled to so
frame your legislation as will only
make general laws. That prolific
source Of confusion-trading, bar
gaining and helping each other pass
special laws for your particular coun-
ties-has been prohibited, and there
IS now no hindrance to the passing of
good, wise and prudent laws that will
benefit the people of the whole Ter
rltory.
In my judgment you will be com
PEELED to fund all floating county in
debtedness, create "A current expense
fund, and into this fund put all the
general revenue and all fees collect
cd by all county officers. Give your
officers good, fair salaries for their
labor and no more.
The law of Congress referred to
will prevent you from ''increasing or
decreasing fees, percentages or al
lowances of public officers during the
term for which said officers are elect
ed or appointed by special laws, y
but you can fix the salaries of all
officers to take effect at once by gen
eral laws that will be applicable to
all the counties.
/ earnestly hope that no personal or
political consideration will influence
you from the performance of your
duty.

GARIBALDI was down the other day
from the Elkhorn. The mine shows
good ore both in the upper works
and in the lower tunnel. This mine
has turned out $500,000-all taken
out above the 200-ft level, and there
is no reason why it should not yield
immensely at greater depth. The
